Federal High Court sitting in Port Harcourt, has struck out two suits filed against the governorship candidate of the Accord Party in Rivers State, Chief Dumo Lulu-Briggs and his Action Alliance (AA) counterpart, Dr Dawari George.

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and an AA governorship aspirant, Aleruchi Williams, had in two different suits filed before the court, against the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) asking the court to order INEC to disqualify the two governorship candidates from contesting the 2023 elections following alleged improper primaries.

But, delivering judgement on the suit against Accord governorship candidate yesterday, Hon. Justice Stephen Daylop-Pam, struck out the suit for lack of jurisdiction.

Daylop-Pam based his judgment on the recent decision of Appeal Court in Lagos and Rivers State, which revealed that no court has jurisdiction to hear any case file by another political party bothering on internal party affairs.

The judge insisted that any attempt by him to interfere in the matter after appellate court had taken decision on the similar matter will amount to rascality and thereby upheld the objections of the Counsels to the defendants and struck out the suits by PDP.
